Cobo Bay Hotel

Coast Road,
Cobo,
CASTEL,
GY5 7HB

The main focus of the hotel's elegant dining room, with its flagged floor and stylish mirrors, is straight out to sea, and there's also an outdoor terrace. Seafood is a strong suit, presented in contemporary combinations along with a cornucopia of top-quality produce. Start with fishcakes with salad and sweet chilli dip, or seared scallops with crisp pancetta and tomato and onion salsa, ahead of sea bass fillet with tomato and shellfish broth and a potato cake laced with chorizo and spring onions. Carnivores may prefer chargrilled chicken breast with Madeira sauce, fondant potato, spinach and mushrooms. To finish, lemon crème brûlée with plums is the real deal.
